9/1
Won twice on the Flat last year and respectable third at this C&D when last seen on the level in October. Below that level tried over hurdles last 3 starts, fifth of 6 in novice at this venue in November, but he could fare better back in this sphere.

Took advantage of drop back into this grade when scoring at Ripon last year. Making only third start for current yard, shaped as if needing the run after 5 months off when fifth of 8 in handicap (12/1) at Southwell (12.1f) 34 days ago, so this outing should reveal more.

11/2
C&D winner in September and doubled his tally at Southwell in November. Seemed unsuited by the step back up in trip when fourth of 7 in handicap (4/1) at Chelmsford City (13.3f) 20 days ago, so he's one to note returned to shorter.

Yet to win in handicap company, but making only second start on all-weather he bounced back to best after 3 months off when second of 11 at Newcastle (10.2f, 16/1) 15 days ago. Task is now to build on latest effort.

Without a win last year, but making third run for current trainer she returned to form when ¾-length fourth of 7 in handicap at Southwell (11.1f, 28/1) 29 days ago, albeit well positioned. Cheekpieces now added.

Returned from 13 months off with success at Leicester (11.8f, soft, 28/1) in October. In the process of running respectably when falling 2 out in handicap hurdle at Southwell 10 weeks ago, but will need to find more back up in grade in this sphere. Cheekpieces reapplied.

Off the mark at Newmarket in June but hasn't gone on from that effort since, sixth of 7 in handicap at Chelmsford City (13.3f, 22/1) on latest outing 20 days ago. Has enough to prove at present.

Thirteen runs since last win in 2024 but better signs when runner-up twice at Lingfield (12f) late last year. Had hopeless task from position when eighth of 10 in handicap at the same course (10f, 14/1) 44 days ago, so he could bounce back.

Much improved since going back on all-weather in handicaps, making it 2 wins from his last 3 starts when battling well for success in 7-runner contest at Southwell (11.1f, 6/4) 15 days ago. Major player in his current form.

Fourteen runs since last win in 2023, though with cheekpieces applied he was runner-up at this C&D and Newcastle in October. After 3 months off, ran poorly when ninth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f, 11/2) 15 days ago, but he lurks on a dangerous mark.

Won readily at Lingfield (12f) in December, before possibly finding the race coming too soon 3 days later when eighth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 11/4) 46 days ago. Remains on a workable mark given a longer break ahead of this race.

Returned to winning ways at this C&D last summer and good efforts when placed on his last 3 starts, bumping into a well-treated type when second of 12 in handicap here (4/1) 28 days ago. Enters calculations.

Won twice at Wolverhampton last year, with latest success over 7.2f in September. Respectable effort next time, before unseating rider home turn back at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 6/1) 10 weeks ago. Back up in trip with blinkers reapplied.

Forecasts

Something (3/1), Dust Cover (7/2), Must Believe (11/2), Fiddlers Green (6/1), Jack Sparowe (17/2), Golden Circet (9/1), Imperial Trooper (14/1), Johnny Boom (20/1), Party Island (22/1), Upepo (22/1), Alpine Oasis (25/1), Atlantic Sunset (25/1), Sceptic (28/1)

Verdict

DUST COVER has taken his form up a level returned to all-weather, showing a good attitude when recording his second success at Southwell 15 days ago, and he can add to his tally upped in trip. Fiddlers Green also arrives in good form having finished runner-up here the last twice and could be the main danger, ahead of Must Believe.
